Amanda Bynes arrested on dagga charge

New York - Police say actress Amanda Bynes has been arrested in New York City after she threw a dagga bong out of a window.

Police say an apartment building official called police on Thursday to complain that Bynes was smoking dagga and rolling a joint in the lobby.

The officers went to Bynes' apartment, where they saw heavy smoke and a bong, which Bynes then threw out the window in front of the officers.

Bynes was arrested on charges of reckless endangerment, tampering with evidence and criminal possession of dagga. It wasn't clear if she had a lawyer.

Bynes rose to fame starring in Nickelodeon's All That and has starred in several films, including 2010's Easy A.
